Artist’s Statement

My mission is to interweave color theory, iconic content, and education with optimistic and empowering storytelling to produce bright, sculptural, multi-layered messages about identity, intent, and the laws of physics. Visual narrative of my art embraces existence as one of a kind, as well as, one of a greater assemblage through conviction, conduct, and courage for acceptance and inclusion.
